I’ve got an article on MOB alarms in the April issue of Pacific Yachting PNW, the one-year-old south-of-the-border version of Vancouver, BC’s Pacific Yachting.
Despite the similar names, these are two separate periodicals, with independent operations. So if you think "Oh yeah, Pacific Yachting, I know that magazine," then think again! Pick up an issue and see what you think.
I, for one, think it’s great, and I’m not just saying that because I’ve got an article published in it! It’s a high-quality, full-color glossy magazine, comparable in look and feel to the national magazines or the high-profile regionals such as Southern Boating. Think Sunset for northwest boaters.
Editor Eric Sorensen has been really supportive and helpful, as I fumble and bumble my way into the world of print media. He presented a seminar at the Seattle Boat Show on "How to Write a Boating Feature Story", in which he managed to convey a great deal of information in just an hour. If you’ve been thinking about telling some of your sea stories or sharing your wisdom with fellow boaters, get in touch with Eric.
